Reactant $(A)$ produces two products. If $Ea_2 = 2 Ea_1$,then $K_1$ and $K_2$ are related as:
$A \xrightarrow{K_1} B$,activation energy: $Ea_1$
$A \xrightarrow{K_2} C$,activation energy: $Ea_2$

  • A
    $K_1 = 2 K_2 e^{Ea_2/RT}$
  • B
    $K_2 = K_1 e^{Ea_1/RT}$
  • C
    $K_2 = K_1 e^{Ea_2/RT}$
  • D
    $K_1 = A' K_2 e^{Ea_1/RT}$
